NHTSA Complaint #10419908 — 2004 NISSAN ARMADA

2004 NISSAN ARMADA; I'VE BEEN MONITORING THESE REPORTS FOR YEARS AND FIND IT RIDICULOUS THAT NISSAN IS INCOMPETENT IN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE THE ADVENT OF THE ARMADA PLATFORM. I HAVE HAD THIS SAME ABS ISSUE SINCE WE PURCHASED THE CAR IN FEB 2005. ALTHOUGH THE ISSUE CAN BE RESOLVED OR RESET BY TURNING OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTING, IT DOES NOTHING TO WARD OFF CLOSE CALLS IN TRAFFIC OR BUSY STREETS WITH PEDESTRIANS. I'VE HEARD EVERYTHING FROM REPLACING THE COMPUTER, BRAKE BOOSTER, PRESSURE EQUALIZATION VALVE...ETC. THESE ARE ALL BLIND ATTEMPTS TO DO SOMETHING IF NOT ANYTHING. THE PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED DEFINITELY AND THE REMEDY APPLIED UNILATERALLY ACROSS THE ARMADA LINE. THE GRINDING NOISE, I BELIEVE IS NOT AT THE ROTORS, IT IS A SPRING LIKE RESONANCE THAT COMES FROM THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND THE MILLISECOND PRESSURE REACTION TO EACH OF THE WHEELS. IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONE HITS A LARGE COIL SPRING WITH A HAMMER. I CAN'T TELL, BUT IS THIS PROBLEM LIMITED TO JUST THE 2004 MODELS? COME ON NISSAN...DO THE RIGHT THING BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT! *KB
